sage:eom:exploring-eom

Exploring the solutions of EOM with one DOF

The notebook provides a template where you learn how to

  • define an EOM for a system with one DOF
  • determine the solutions for given initial conditions
  • plot the solutions in phase space
  • plot the direction field of the EOM
  • merge different plots and save them

  • Based on this example we introduce the Sage syntax for handling ODEs

For more information you can take a look at a screenshot of the notebook — or you give it a try and

I am always very grateful for suggestions:

  • need for additional comments and explanation
  • possibilities for alternative, potentially more elegant solutions
  • requests for other worksheets that introduce and explain further features of Sage or explore topics relevant for our course

Please send your notebooks by email to me, or post a comment in this discussion forum:
